Navigator Gen3 v0.3.0-beta — the auto-reconnect fix + a real handlebar controller.

Headline fixes

  • Silent auto-reconnect (the #1 issue) is FIXED. After you cycle the ignition off and on, the app now relinks on its own in about a second, with no "add device" prompt on the dash. It remembers your pairing keys and re-presents them; those keys now survive app updates, reinstalls and even a new phone. Verified live on a KTM 390 Adventure across repeated ignition cycles.
  • Automatic bike detection — on connect it reads the dash model/firmware and shows the detected type (e.g. "Navigator Gen 3 (BCCU)") in the connection banner. Non-Gen-3 dashes now report clearly instead of hanging on "handshaking".

The handlebar remote is now a proper controller

Long-press UP (from any screen) opens the mode picker: Controller / Music / Bike (off). "Bike (off)" hands the buttons back to the dash.

How to use it

  • Controller mode (a D-pad for your phone):
    • UP / DOWN — move up / down
    • SET (single tap) — right · BACK (single tap) — left
    • SET double-click — open / select the highlighted item (reliably opens apps now)
    • SET long-press — long-press the item (context menus / shortcuts)
    • BACK double-click — back
  • Music mode:
    • UP / DOWN (single) — volume up / down
    • UP / DOWN (double-click) — next / previous track
    • SET — play / pause
  • Long-press DOWN — open Google Maps, from anywhere.

Every press is read on release, and the app cleanly tells a tap, a double-click and a press-and-hold apart (tuned from real measurements on the bike).

On the dash

  • Now-playing track scrolls across the bottom bar once when the song changes (e.g. "Adventure Of A Lifetime by Coldplay").
  • Cleaner messages — mirrored notifications are stripped of emoji/symbols the dash font can't render.

Other

  • App package renamed to com.navigator.app. Installing this is a one-time fresh start — pair once and re-grant the notification + accessibility permissions, then it's the app going forward. (You can uninstall any older com.opendash.app build afterward.)

Known / in progress

  • Full vehicle telemetry (voltage, gear, coolant temp, wheel speed, fuel) — the dash's telemetry service is present but currently rejects our requests; being investigated.
  • Older "MY RIDE" KTMs need a separate connection path (planned).
